From: Clemens Prill

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:

- information on checking and approving notification of upcoming German law 'Gesetz zur Verbesserung der Rechtsdurchsetzung in sozialen Netzwerken (NetzDG)' *. I wish to be able to understand what stands for or against this law and why the EU approves it. So please be so kind and forward papers, discussion materials, statements, documents and files regarding this. Keep in mind that I'm not interested in press releases only but in internal documents, information, etc.
